    Started my career there in september went through the school they own and did the training month otr with them. went well for that other than having to make 400 last a week every week for about 3 weeks. then came the lousy push into leasing so you GET GUARNTEED MILEAGE! YEAH RIGHT!!!!!! first week in 1500 miles and wound up with a -398.00 pay settlement. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR BEFORE GOING TO CR ENGLAND MAKE SURE YOU ALREADY HAVE A RETIREMENT PACKAGE SET UP!

    They must have some slick salesmen to get the drivers to lease with them.All you're doing is making their trk payments and they're making a nice profit off each and every driver.I bet you drivers are paying $100.00 more for each trk payment then cre is maybe even more.I don't understand why drivers don't wanna test the waters first before jumping in.See how many miles they give you as a co driver first for at least a yr.You have what sign a 2 yr contract?Is it really worth it?

    Whenever somebody pushes me, I push back. When I want to go and try do do something, I go do it. You can't let somebody else talk you into something. It's usually to their advantage not yours.

    Not meaning to be disrespectful to you but i really cant understand why you and many others go to work for these guys. Did you not do your research before you signed on with them? I mean,there are hundreds if not thousands of negative reports about CR all over the web. These guys have one of the absolute worst records of any trucking company out there and yet they still get drivers to buy into their line of BS.Then the drivers end up losing everything after they find out that all of the negative reports were true.

    Again,not trying to upset you or anything but next time,do your self a favor and do your research before you sign the dotted line! Sure there are a lot of drivers out there who will bad mouth any company for the smallest reason. But when you get the same kind of complaints from a huge amount of current/ex drivers,it's safe to assume that there must be some truth behind it.

    I wish you luck and hope you do find a good company to work for,they are few and far between.

    ....well they do have nice equipment :)

    My brother bought his 1st truck at a dealer in Texarkana. It was an off fleet CRE truck. He made a good coin as an O/O with that truck. The only mechanical issues he had was A/C....yearly!

    Why is it none of you people ever do research before going to CRE? I'm quite sure you have a search button on your TTR webpage. I'm almost positive if you did use that feature you would have found out just how P/H/U/C/K/E/D up they are. I'm not going to tell you we told you so, but all you need to do is research them and there's 50 complaints to every one positive thing you'll find. Let's here it from the cheerleaders about what he did wrong.....lol.

    How many anti-CR England threads can one forum handle?

    Ooo, Idea! Lets have a cement brick pop out of the monitor, and slam the next idiot who creates an anti-CR England thread right in the face!

    Mods? Admin? C'mon, anybody?

    By the way, the idiot remark is not directed at the OP (ok, it kinda is), but at the next idiot who posts an anti-CR England thread, instead of just adding their post to a thread that already exists (there must be thousands by now). We get it, CR England sucks. Heck, we could've told you. Double heck, we did tell you. Time and time and time again. Research, people! It's not that hard! The internet really does have more purpose than sending lemur porn to your desktop!


    Don't ask about the lemur porn. I ain't tellin'!

    I prefer a new post. I don't want to go sloshing through some 15 page behemoth to read about some guys experience with a company. Especially when at least half of the 15 pages are full of responses from d-bags ripping the op for being stupid enough to make a bad decision.

    Please make a new post when talking about your experience with a company unless you are responding to the op.

    To the op good luck bro.
